Act 6 scene 2 wait….

He was walking through a fog. Footsteps, ones that didn't belong to him, echoed across the pavement.

"Who's there?" he called out. There wasn't any answer except for a quickening of the footsteps. The sounds moved ahead of him. He followed. All was quiet. If only that darn fog could get out of the way, he'd be able to see…

He rounded what he presumed to be a corner and the footsteps stopped. He drew his sword and cautiously walked forward. There was a swooshing sound and something crashed onto his head. Stumbling he-

"-Wah!" Sunlight streamed into the room. "What time is it?" Cyrara asked.

"It's 12 o'clock!" Bretete answered

"Why didn't you wake me up sooner? I'm going to be late!"

"I thought you were out at that fencing school… Late? What for?"

"It's nothing…" Cyrara jumped out of bed and looked in the mirror, "I'm a keronian again?"

"Yeah, you didn't realize that?" Bretete looked at Cyrara curiously.

"I went to bed and forgot to turn off that weird invention." Cyrara shrugged, "Oh well, I'll just- it's not working."

Bretete examined the button, "It looks good to me. But then again, I only know so much about machines and stuff…"

"Weird…" Cyrara went into the living room and looked at the clock. Twelve thrity, he had to hurry or he'd be late. And he hated to be late. He ran into his room and looked around. "There you are." He said spying a ordinary-looking suit.

"I'll just figure something out. See you later Bretete!" Cyrara grabbed some toast and left the apartment.

Bretete poked his head out of his room, "Geez can you pop one in the toaster for- oh he left."

Cyrara rushed towards Ragugu's bakery and turned into an alleyway a little before the shop. He sighed as he looked at something "Well, this'll have to work for now. This must have been coming for a while…"

Shortly after leaving the alleyway Cyrara entered Ragugu's shop. As he entered he jolted into someone. "Oh, excuse me." He did a small bow to the person he bumped into.

"Christian? Is that you?" He stopped dead and looked up at the sound of that familiar voice.

"Roxane! Uh, sorry about-"

"It's ok," Roxane said, "How are you?"

"er, good…you?"

"I'm doing fine! Um, is that a mask you're wearing?" Cyrara mentally cringed at this comment. She noticed already, but that wasn't a surprise…

"Y-yeah…I have a part-time job that I have to go to er, after this…" Cyrara hoped that this hastily made excuse would do for the moment.

"Oh, I see…" Roxane said. The two sat down at a table and a familiar face came up to them.

"Hello you two. What would you like?" Ragugu asked.

"The usual please." Cyrara and Roxane said.

"All, right. Coming up!" Ragugu disappeared back into the kitchen.

"How did your, um time go?" Roxane asked.

"It went well…there was a slight hold up but besides that, it was an easy mission," Cyrara said, "I was only gone for…a month at the most right?"

Roxane stared at him, "Christian, you were gone for four months."

Cyrara sat there saying nothing.

"Christian, are you all right?"

"Er, I'm all right," he said snapping to, "didn't realize it was that long!"

ugh, space-time and all that…didn't realize traveling from arras to pekopon took so long!

"Well thank goodness you're all right!" Roxane said smiling.

They chatted about everyday things and Ragugu served them their meal. Eventually it was time for both of them to leave.

"It's nice seeing you again Roxane!" Cyrara said to her as they exited the store.

"Same here Christian! Hopefully you won't be put on another mission…We still have a lot to talk about."

"I hope so too," he muttered, "Well, see you soon enough!" He waved and watched Roxane disappear into the crowd before doing so himself.

Hm, Christian must be a very good actor among things... Roxane thought to herself as she walked back to the train home He made the mask move when he was talking and I didn't even see him using his hands…
